The document discusses different activation techniques for two-couple orthodontic appliance systems in the transverse dimension. It describes symmetrical and asymmetrical v-bend activations that can produce molar mesial-out, mesial-in, and constriction/expansion movements. It also discusses using step bends for molar expansion/constriction. Additionally, it outlines various activation options for transpalatal arches, including bilateral and unilateral first, second, and third-order movements.
